Beating the all familiar track through Perth city to the Dillenger Escape Plan concert, I was a little aprehensive about having my head caved in by the lead singers brutal stage antics.

To avoid this, and the risk of missing the concert due to unconsciousness, I hung toward the back of the crowd with an impeded, but safer view of the math-core band.

The safety measure proved effective as the band threw themselves full force into Fix Your Face while at the same time throwing themselves full force into the crowd without once missing note.

I watched in awe as the two guitarists hung from the scaffolding and launched into the middle of the crowd before being thrown back on stage and bouncing off the walls all the while keeping their music at an even pace.

Never have I seen such an intense stage act.

Dillinger Escape Plan have a little something we like to call awesomeness and it really is something every band should have.

Unless a band has such great music that it's worth hearing live, they should at least give us something good to look at.

Watching such a chaotic scene made me realise the sheer intensity of the music - something that couldn't have been captured had the musicians been standing on the spot for more than a few seconds.
